Say Goodbye to Grout and Hello to a Shower You’ll Love Cleaning

If your shower walls are stained, cracked, or growing mold no matter how much you scrub, you’re not dealing with a cleaning problem, you’re dealing with a material problem. Tile and grout were simply not designed for the heat, moisture, and humidity that coastal Virginia homes live with every day. The grout breaks down. The caulk fails. And what should be the most relaxing spot in your home becomes a source of frustration.

Bath Source has a better solution. We install custom BCI® acrylic shower surrounds designed to eliminate grout lines entirely, giving Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, and surrounding area homeowners a surface that is non-porous, mold-resistant, and genuinely easy to maintain. Most installations are completed in about one day, and every project begins with a full demolition so we know exactly what we’re building on. No shortcuts. No installing over old problems. Just a clean, beautiful shower built to last.

Why Homeowners Choose Bath Source for Shower Surrounds

There’s no shortage of contractors who’ll resurface a shower. Bath Source does something different, and homeowners throughout Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, and Suffolk notice the difference.

WE ALWAYS START WITH A FULL DEMO

We remove everything, existing tile, walls, and surfaces, down to the studs before we install anything. That means we can see exactly what’s behind your walls, treat any mold or moisture damage, and update plumbing as needed. You get a fresh start, not a cover-up.

COMPLETED IN ABOUT ONE DAY

Unlike traditional tile remodels that stretch over days or weeks, most Bath Source shower surround installations are finished in approximately one day. You’re not living with a torn-up bathroom, and you’re back in your shower fast.

LOCALLY OWNED, LOCALLY INVESTED

Bath Source is locally owned and backed by Exterior Source’s 30+ years of home improvement experience in the region. We know Virginia’s coastal climate, and we design our solutions with that humidity and moisture in mind.

A+ BBB RATING & FACTORY-TRAINED INSTALLERS

Every installer on our team is factory-trained and background-checked. Our A+ Better Business Bureau rating reflects years of delivering on our promises, from the first consultation to the final walkthrough.

LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY

Our BCI® acrylic systems come backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty on both products and installation. That’s not a limited-time offer, it’s the kind of confidence that comes from standing behind your work.

Premium BCI® Acrylic Systems — Built for Coastal Virginia Climates

Bath Source installs BCI® acrylic wall systems, a premium bath product line engineered for durability, hygiene, and low maintenance. These are not standard fiberglass panels. Every system we install is custom-measured for your specific shower and fabricated to fit perfectly.

BCI® ACRYLIC

  • 100% non-porous surface — moisture, soap, and bacteria have nowhere to hide
  • No grout lines — no grout to stain, crack, regrout, or scrub
  • Heaviest-gauge acrylic available — impact-resistant and won’t crack like ceramic tile
  • Custom-fabricated to your exact shower dimensions
  • 25+ colors, 17 wall designs, and endless hardware combinations

MICROBAN® ANTIMICROBIAL PROTECTION — INFUSED, NOT COATED

Every BCI® panel we install is infused with Microban® antimicrobial protection, built directly into the material, not applied as a surface treatment. This means it doesn’t wear off with cleaning. Microban® actively resists mold, mildew, and bacteria growth for the life of the product, making it especially well-suited for the humidity levels common throughout Virginia Beach, Norfolk, and the surrounding coastal communities.

Exclusive SuperTach™ adhesive technology bonds your acrylic walls to the substrate for a rock-solid, permanent hold — backed by our Limited Lifetime Warranty.

If Your Shower Looks Like This, It’s Time for a Change

Virginia’s coastal humidity accelerates the wear and tear that every shower eventually faces. Homeowners contact us most often when they’re dealing with:

  • Cracked, chipped, or stained tile that no amount of cleaning can fix
  • Black mold or mildew permanently embedded in grout lines
  • Recurring caulk failures and water sneaking behind the walls
  • Drywall or structural damage from long-term moisture intrusion
  • Yellowing or dingy fiberglass surrounds that look worn no matter what
  • A bathroom that feels dated, dark, and nothing like what they want

Our Process: From First Call to Finished Shower

FREE IN-HOME DESIGN CONSULTATION

A Bath Source design consultant comes to your home, assesses your existing shower, takes precise measurements, and walks you through the full range of BCI® colors, textures, patterns, and built-in accessories. You’ll know exactly what your new shower will look like — and exactly what it will cost — before we schedule anything.

CUSTOM FABRICATION

Your shower surround system is built to the exact dimensions of your space. Every panel is custom-cut, not trimmed from a standard sheet, and not a one-size-fits-all kit. Precision fit means a cleaner look and a better long-term result.

FULL DEMOLITION, INSPECTION & PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION

On installation day, our factory-trained team removes all existing tile, walls, and surfaces down to the studs. We inspect every inch for hidden moisture damage, mold, or plumbing issues — and address whatever we find before installation begins. Then we install and permanently bond your new BCI® acrylic system, seal all edges, and leave your bathroom clean. Most projects are completed in about one day.

FINAL WALKTHROUGH & WARRANTY REVIEW

Before we leave, we walk you through your finished shower, explain care and cleaning instructions, and review your Limited Lifetime Warranty coverage. You’ll know exactly how to keep your new shower looking great for years to come.

What Goes Into the Cost of a Shower Surround Replacement?

Every bathroom is different, so every project is priced individually. At your free in-home consultation, we’ll give you a clear, detailed quote with no vague estimates and no surprise line items after the fact. Here’s what typically shapes the investment:

  • Shower size and configuration — larger or non-standard dimensions require more material and custom fabrication
  • Wall system selection — BCI® offers a range of finishes, from classic solid colors to stone and marble-look patterns at varying price points
  • Built-in accessories — corner caddies, niche boxes, shelving, and soap dishes are available à la carte
  • Condition of the existing space — if our inspection uncovers water damage, mold, or plumbing issues, we’ll address them and communicate the scope clearly before proceeding

Compared to traditional tile replacement, our acrylic surround systems are typically more affordable upfront, and significantly less expensive over time thanks to lower maintenance, no regrouting, and far greater durability. We also offer flexible financing options to make the upgrade accessible for most budgets. Ask about current offers at your consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Long Does Shower Surround Installation Take?

Most installations are completed in about one day, including full demolition and installation. Timing can vary slightly based on the existing condition of the space.

Do You Install Over Existing Tile or Walls?

No, never. We always perform a full demolition, removing existing tile, walls, and surfaces down to the studs. This lets us inspect for hidden moisture damage or mold and make any necessary repairs before the new system goes in.

Will Mold Grow Behind the New Walls?

Because we fully demo the space first, we can identify and treat any existing mold before installation. The BCI® acrylic panels are also infused with Microban® antimicrobial protection, which actively resists mold and mildew growth for the life of the product.

How Do I Clean the New Surround?

A weekly wipe-down with a non-abrasive cleaner and soft cloth is all it takes. No scrubbing, no re-caulking, no regrouting — ever.

Is There a Warranty?

Yes. Most Bath Source shower surround systems are backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty on both products and installation.

Can I Customize the Look?

Absolutely. We offer 25+ colors, 17 wall designs, and a wide selection of hardware and built-in accessories. Your design consultant will walk you through all options at your free in-home consultation.
